The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga

Reading the 1st 10 pages i began to appreciate myself that i bought this for reading.the author gives a perfect description of world i live. this story i have heard from numerous ppl who once had been servants. the book shows the hungry anger and witty enough to tickle the furthest humour bone. the book is on darker side. pg after pg you are humorously attacked how we cope up in this world. many of my frens have been jumping job,as they are 1st gear ppl as described by the author. i wonder hw we can be in asingle job for 50 years. day in and day out doing the same routine. the pace is good. but i kept down the book after each chapter to chew on what the happened in that chapter. the author is very reasonable and persuasive abt each of his charcters in his book,abt how and why they react so a given situation, the story revolves around balram halwai a supposed to be sweet maker,but in time becomes a humble servant, murdere,enterprenur and a philosopher. the tale is journey of balram born in darkness of village life (read poor) to the life of amoral business man(read rich). want to know a bit of real india, this is one of the book.
